Dehydrated skin - Dehydration of the skin is related to cold or hot outdoor or indoor temperatures, wind, sun, air
conditioner, heating it can also be caused by emotional feelings like anger, stress, illness, or any condition that
affects the nervous system. Dryskin is cause by not having enough oils in the skin, and dehydrated skin is from
not having enough water in the skin. Dr Renaud Hydrascience AHD3 or Prevention Collagene creams or
